When you think of winter, immediately you picture snow-covered driveways, ice skating under the stars and hot chocolate. And then there’s the ugly side of wintry weather, endless layers of clothing, your kids runny noses and the flu! Yes, it’s that time of the year again, I thought you might be interested in learning about the Cold & Flu Symptom Tracker. The Tracker can be found here.
For parents, being aware of the activity in their area could help them prepare for when cold and flu symptoms appear. This online tool provides a weekly data feed of cold & flu symptom trends by state, plus other cold prevention tips for you and your family.
You might also be interested in the Sick Day Guidelines that Triaminic® partnered with the National Association of School Nurses (NASN) to create. Parents know when their kids aren’t feeling 100% – these Guidelines are aimed at helping parents decide when to keep them at home, or send them off to school.

Our cold, cough, and flu level for our area is very high.
New York is in the top five cities of cold and flue reports.
Ours in the Seattle area are moderate. Thanks for the chance.

The cold and flu in detroit is 10% right now, hope it stays that way!
I learned that young children can be infectious for up to 6 days before their symptoms appear. Wow, you know I knew from school that people are more contagious before symtoms appear, when the cold or flu virus is incubating but I didn’t know they were contagious this far ahead!
The cold and flu in my area is moderate. Eeek!

Triaminic was originally formulated in 1956 in Lincoln, Nebraska. I would have thought it would have been created in a more populated area. Very interesting.
